Interesting timing, I just got some spam for win4lin today, they say 
"running Windows on Pro is now actually faster than running it native on 
a PC" ... hmmm, I had always assumed it would be slow running under qemu 
but I could be wrong.

Are you using win4lin or just qemu, are things performing well after 
300% increase or still too slow?

I just bought a new PC and it came with XP Home so I'm toying with the 
idea of putting XP into a VM rather than leaving it on it's own 
dedicated partition.
